    I do love my car and its a pleasure to drive but would rather have a roof and 4 walls :confused:

    I should say I rather win lotto and have everything but dreaming never gets me anywhere. Just looked at what its worth as a trade in and its not a lot and scary depreciation since I bought it.

    Maybe I should take Hypno up on the bike :think:

    Yes, it was from a barclays account - serves me right for not reading things properly! Oh well, it will arrive eventually :o

    You should come out of lurkdom more often!!

    I shall try but its quite fast paced on your diary Hypno :D I am used to the rather slower pace of OS!


    Re the faster payments I was told by my bank earlier this year that the bacs system should be immediate by Sept this year - somehow I dont think that will happen. It takes longer for a cheque to clear nowdays than it did when I had my first job at a bank in 1985.......god how old am I :eek:

    (would just like to add that no I do not work in banking now - I dont want to be thrown off the site!)

    Evening guys!

    Just done a lightspeed survey......just how exciting can life get. There is another survey waiting for me to do, but I can't cope with too much excitement in one go......I will need to compose myself first :rolleyes:

    Snap! I just did a lightspeed survey too, now have £15 in Amaz0n vouchers, will be handy for chrimbo or more likely, to go towards a new European satnav as I'm hoping to take DD away to France for a few days in September before she starts school on the 16th :)

    Spent 50p today of my virtual £20 or however much is left, have put it in my sig. I like this virtual £20 business, it's making me think a lot more than usual!

    bleurgh.......tired tired tired, again, again, again :rolleyes:

    scratches aren't yet awake, so not even 10p to report......but I have submitted two email mystery shops which will net me £6 in due course, so that's ok - I have one last one to do this evening, and then I have no M/S type things coming up......will have to keep my eyes open and re-set my profile maybe in case I am missing anything!

    Hope you have a good day....off now to make more coffee and do the banking.
